An ! can bring a man to his knees. Please ignore/lock topic. The functionality works.
I am playing around with the core code trying to implement my own wallet (out of curiosity and mainly to get better grips with internals).
So far this is what i have done
- Launched in regtest mode , generated 101 blocks with mining reward 50.0 BTC paid out.
- Got hold of the chainActive structure and basically trying to implement a version of ScanForWalletTransactions.
- Following the crumbs from the above function leads me to Solver (called via isMine)
If I look at the representation of the pubKey script in the reward transaction it looks something like :
Which is decoded to :
Looking at the solver , this transactions will not be decoded to TX_PUBKEY as it expects the following in the template
But the getBalance RPC can correctly deduce the balance, so essentially it works.
For the love of god , i am unable to figure out how is the simple script signature of OP_CHECKSIG is added to the wallet. Any tips will be appreciated.
Cheers!
